One day a teacher did an experiment on all of the Senior Class and told them to write their name of the balloon then toss it in the hallway. When everyone was done and with the hallway full of balloons, the teacher told all of the students to now look for their balloon with their name on it. After 20 minutes, everyone was so frustrated as no one could find their own balloon so the teacher told them to grab one balloon and give it back to that person and within a minute or two everyone had their own balloons…

Let’s get real: Running is hard enough without your boobs staging a mutiny. Whether you’re an A-cup sprinting for PRs or a DD tackling trail runs, the wrong sports bra can turn your workout into a literal pain in the chest. I’ve seen it all—chafed skin, awkward adjustments mid-run, and that soul-crushing moment when you realize your “supportive” bra is just a glorified crop top. But here’s the good news: You don’t need a PhD in bra engineering to find your perfect match. As a runner and fitness coach who’s tested more bras than I’d care to admit, I’m breaking…

Its impact extends far beyond appearance, influencing mobility, emotional well-being, and long-term health outcomes. While diet and lifestyle remain the cornerstone of management, pharmacological solutions can provide crucial support to prevent the snowballing of complications.

Super excited to be posting a giveaway with Ancient Nutrition! Some of you in the USA may already be familiar with this brand, but they’ve recently launched in Canada.  I’ve started incorporating collagen into my diet in the last couple years and I feel that its been helping my hair and skin. I had a rough go with hair loss after having Clara, and I feel a combination of things such as increased iron, vitamins and adding collagen have all helped. I’m also dairy sensitive, so I’ve been enjoying collagen based proteins as they taste very similar to whey protein,…

They were like, “okay, we’ll just destroy them” and I was like uhhh no you can’t do that and that’s the story of how I ended up with a warehouse full of Pirouette dupes! Like… I hate dupes and I never thought I’d be collecting them but when it came to destroying perfectly good clothing I had no choice but to save them.

Substitutions: You can substitute regular broccoli, but increase the roasting time to 20-25 minutes since the florets are denser. Garlic timing: Adding the garlic after roasting prevents it from burning and becoming bitter. The residual heat from the hot broccolini is enough to mellow the raw garlic flavor. Air fryer option: You can cook broccolini in an air fryer at 400°F for 8-10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through. The results are similar to oven roasting. Variations: Try adding red pepper flakes before roasting or finishing with grated parmesan or Pecorino Romano cheese for variation.
